Excellent fruit intensity, balanced acidity and delicate grapey fruit, long and very well integrated residual. 90p

Intense aromas of peach, apricots, citrus, and slight floral notes hidden in the back. Quite saline & sour upfront with decent flavors of white fruits that persist up to the moderate length finish. Some minerality and a touch of fizzyness. Ok on its own but was made grander with Goat Curry, a qpr pairing for Indian food.

Surprisingly, this one is still drinking after 7 years. Semi-sweet, but not off-putting... this is a bottle I kept around for our guests who know me too well, and ask for a white that's "not too dry". At this age, it's a simple wine, some light acidity, and no overt aromas. Likely a crowd pleaser, and inexpensive as well.

Proche d'un riesling d'Alsace
Fruits arômes et légèrement de sucre résiduel. À boire sans retenue a se petit prix.
